The Canadian government announced Monday that it would soon allow fully vaccinated U.S citizens and permanent residents currently living in the U.S. to enter the country.
Key Points:
Additional Information: Beginning Sept. 7, the Canadian government will open its borders for non-essential travel for fully vaccinated travelers from any country as long as the COVID-19 situation continues to improve. Such individuals must have received a Canadian-approved vaccine at least 14 days before entering the country.
BAL Analysis: The change will ease procedures for fully vaccinated U.S. nationals planning travel to Canada; however, border measures remain subject to change as the epidemiological situation evolves. The U.S. continues to restrict nonessential travel across the U.S.-Canada border. The current restrictions are in place through the end of the day on July 21; officials have not yet said whether they will be extended. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic continues to develop, and BAL will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
